You work it backwards.
-- If there were 4 children and each child got 4 pieces,
then the children got (4 x 4) = 16 pieces altogether.

Answer:
x=5, y=(5)/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the 30-60-90 triangle rule, we know that the sides follow 1-(/2)-2. The ratio between the side and the rule is 5/2, meaning that we know that y=(5)/2 and x=5.
Is THIS good enough for you?
